About us

and how it all came to be

Wandering through Timisoara we found this marvelous old house for rent. As there was no Hostel in Timisoara we decided to change this situation and took the problem in our hands.. literally! After hard negotiating with the house owners we
reached an agreement. It couldn't have been otherwise since we fell in love with the house. We hereby would like thank the house owners for their patience and understanding.

Then, in the summer of 2010 the fun began! As you can see from the pictures, we had a lot of help from our friends, who are too many to mention now (and we don't want to forget anyone), but we wish to thank them for all their support.

We couldn't have done it without you guys!

before, once upon a time..

It took no more than one year to get the hostel to look like this. Of course the toughest part was the bureaucracy! This is actually how we got the name of the hostel... but we will tell you more about that when we'll meet.

So here we are now, waiting for you to come to our little home and enjoy your stay! Soon you will see more pictures here (as we are further improving and improvising), just to have a hint of what's happening at Hostel Costel!

& our happily ever after (.. we hope)
